Originally spawned as a garage band that became "Over .08" in 2006, Namahage (pronounced NOMMA-hog-EE) came into existence as orginal members Demitri Stewart (drums), Jason Whitsell (rhythm guitar) , and Nate Huggins (bass/vocals) hooked up with lead guitarist Dave"The Hamma" Jack 2009. Their tenure was short lived, and the project went into forced hiatus upon Jack suffering a serious wrist injury, and ultimately leaving the group.

In 2013, the group reformed with new lead guitarist Virgil Chin for a session in studio, and then finally all committed in 2015 to going full steam ahead with recordings and potential bookings as a full time band. That is where we stand...
